6 months ago today my heart was overflowing with love for you as I held you in my arms for the first time. You are my little love and I can hardly believe that you are already 6 months old. You are my constant reminder that when you are not looking, God will surprise you with the desires of your heart.
This is what you have been up to lately...
*at your last ear check you weighed 14 lbs 8 oz
*you wear size 3-6 clothes and size 2 diapers
*you are rolling all over the place.
*you love to put anything you can into your mouth. We call you a piranha because you literally go towards things with your mouth open ready to chomp. Your favorite thing to eat is paper so we need to be really careful where we leave things now!
*you babble all the time - usually when we are trying to get you down for a nap. Just gagas for now, no mama or dada yet.
*you love it when Grant plays with you and makes you laugh. Mom loves to see you two interact as well- such fun to watch your relationship develop.
*I think you are actually growing hair! It is coming in quite blond, but if you rub your face against it, you can feel the fuzz coming in.
*you started sitting up last week and love it...
but, you still topple over quite a bit!
*you have experienced a lot of illness over the last month and unfortunately, you are sick again.
*due to your illness, your sleep is all over the place. You usually like a short morning nap, long afternoon nap and then sleep from 10-7ish. Lately though you have been waking up a couple times during the night since you don't feel well.
*you love to eat! You eat 2 T of cereal at lunch and dinner and then add a veggie or fruit at dinner as well. So far you have eaten rice, oatmeal, and whole wheat cereals, peas, carrots, green beans, sweet potatoes, bananas and pears. The ironic thing is that you seemed to not mind the veggies at all, but you give funny faces when you eat the bananas and pears.
*you are so smiley and happy. When someone glances your way, you break out a huge smile that just warms your heart.
We love you so much and are so grateful that God blessed our lives with you.
